Amalia Chardonnay

and mothers are always celebrated together at Palmaz Vineyards. Amalia Palmaz was the inspiration and instigator of our Chardonnay. Although Julio always wanted a singular focus on exceptional Cabernet, Amalia convinced him that not every meal needs to be paired with such powerful wine; once in a while, she said, “a little white can be delightful.” He acquiesced, dedicating one tunnel in the Cave to Chardonnay fermentation.

2018 Palmaz Vineyards Amalia Chardonnay

The beautiful pale yellow color of the 2018 Amalia Chardonnay glimmers in the glass. Its aromatic notes of honeysuckle and tart green apple entice you to dive in. Hints of mango and papaya dance across the palate perfectly balanced with a splash of white pepper and toasted honeycomb. The finish is everlasting; begging for shrimp quenelles or even a pan seared squab.
